Key Points

The results show accurate biomass estimates for both above-ground and below-ground components.
Biomass was determined using specific allometric functions tailored for Robusta coffee plants.
Data were collected from multiple locations in Southwestern Uganda over an unspecified period.
Sustainable management may rely on these estimates to enhance carbon sequestration in coffee farming.
